What diameter and TSR are you planning? IIRC you said it was 8' diameter. "Fat end" is relative, but it doesn't sound like enough.
Plugging a 2.44m prop into Alton's calculator, with a TSR of 7 I get:
Station Station Radius Blade Angle In Degrees
1 0.12 40.1
2 0.24 21.8
3 0.37 13.4
4 0.49 9.3
5 0.61 6.8
6 0.73 5
7 0.85 3.8
8 0.98 2.8
9 1.1 2
10 1.22 1.4
